After Action Report
The Mavericks fended off the Knicks 128-122. The tempo dragged the Knicks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Second-chance points piled up for the Mavericks; Knicks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Mavericks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
